Osteoarthritis in the lumber vertebrae is caused due to degenerative disorder or due to injury in the backbone/cartilage. The high rate of lumber vertebrae osteoarthritis indicates the presence of genetic disorder only, which means the Native American tribes carried a gene for this disorder, which was only expressed in the female offsprings.
